Overview

NTPT carbon and black ceramic, with red on the strap and crown

The Dark Legend combines NTPT carbon with an ATZ black ceramic bezel and a grade 5 titanium case middle and back, so the case reads dark throughout while the layered carbon still shows its striations. Red picks out the crown and the strap.

The calibre RMUL2 inside is the same skeletonised manual-winding movement used across the RM 055, built to withstand the accelerations of a golf swing.

Design and engineering

  • NTPT carbon with ATZ black ceramicThe composite gives lightness and the ceramic scratch resistance at 1,400 Vickers, with the titanium case middle and back carrying the structure between them.
  • Calibre RMUL2Manual winding and extremely skeletonised, in grade 5 titanium with PVD and Titalyt® treatment, giving rigidity and the surface flatness the gear train needs.
  • Free-sprung balance with variable inertiaThe regulator index is eliminated; four small weights set directly on the balance allow accurate and repeatable adjustment.
  • Double barrelEnergy is spread across two barrels, equalising torque and reducing pressure and friction on bearings and pivots.
  • Rubberised titaniumRubber is injected at high pressure around the titanium components, insulating the movement from vibration and making the watch more comfortable on the wrist.
  • Curved sapphire crystalWith a sapphire caseback.
